The morning sun when it's in your face
really shows your age
But that don't worry me, no
In my eyes you're everything.

[Radii]

Dinner time. Good luck you guys. And don't quit 10 minutes after I leave and make me kick myself for having to head out now :)

So, what time is it over there, ardent?

[Poli]

About 2:15 am.

[Kodos]

Night's still young.

[Poli]

I'm not tired. I slept most of the day.

[Kodos]

All night long, all night, all night,
All night long!
All night!

[Kodos]

Soooo. Who you planning to take to the finals with you if you win?

[Poli]

4.05497867

[Kodos]

You plan to take 4.05497867 with you?

I stand by my word, Kodos.

[Poli]

Nope, I plan to take 4.05497867 years to post here.

[Kodos]

Then it seems silly for us to go on with this.

[Poli]

I agree. If you'd just step DOWN...I'd be much happier. :)

[Kodos]

I'll make you a deal. You step down, and I swear I will take you to the final, just as we said. I usually don't even go to bed until 10 or so, your time. I just want that last little bit of security. :)

[Kodos]

You know you'd rather go against me anyhow. :)

[Poli]

I'd love to take you up on that, but I want that security as well. I offer my promise to keep you instead. You know I've been upfront with you before.

[Marmel]

Holy crap. You guys are still at it? Did Radii drop?

[Kodos]

As have I with you. The only person I've crossed was Marmel. And let's face it - he had it coming. ;)

[Marmel]

You bastard!

[Kodos]

Yeah, Radii dropped a page or 2 ago.

[Kodos]

Besides, reneging on my posted pledge would ensure that I'd lose in the final vote.

[Poli]

Depends on how you look at it, mon ami.

[Kodos]

Filler post.

[Poli]

Dang it Kodos!

[Kodos]

Who knows what your chances against Radii are? I am a much easier opponent to beat in the final.

Look into your heart. You know that it's true. Come, join me, and together we will rule the Survivor universe, father and son, and we'll leave it up to the people to decide.

[Poli]

The Force is strong within me! You're not my father! NO!!!

[Kodos]

It is useless to resist, my son.

[Coffee Warlord]

Kodos isn't quitting till he gets 10,000 posts.

[Poli]

You never saw the end of the movie, did you? Or was it that I didn't see the end of the movie?

[Kodos]

Damn those Ewoks! They ruined everything!

Breathes audibly. Breathes audibly.

[Poli]

Thinks of what a lightsaber would really feel like if he was actually hit by one...

[stkelly52]

You guys are stlll going at it!

[Poli]

yes, sadly.

[Kodos]

Good morning!

[Poli]

Aloha!

[Kodos]

We're just trying to iron things out here.

[Poli]

Yeah, negotiations are going slow. I just can't allow aliens in our aircraft!

BTW, answer your PM!

[Eilim]

I don't know whats worse.. you two still doing this.. or me following along.. :) Now get back to trying to talk eachother into stepping down, fun stuff to watch.

[Poli]

Kodos, I promise you dinner when I get to Chicago :), if of course you step down. That being said, it'll probably be at my place. Can't have aliens in local restraunts, you know. Probably spelled that wrong. Oh well.

[stkelly52]

someone asked how voting would go in the fianl round. Just like in the real show, the winner of this challenge makes to whole decision. There will be no poll. The reason why is because it makes no difference. If the vot goes to Radii and the popular vote is someone else then it is a tie. The tie breaker is decided by the one who wins immunity, thus the only vote that counts is the winner of this challenge.

[Kodos]

Hey, Eilim. Have you been following this all along, or just this afternoon?

[Poli]

Sweet! All that's left is Kodos to step down, I vote for Radii. And Kodos and I are in the final then!

[stkelly52]

This has some interesting stuff in it. I may need to read the whole thing some time

[Eilim]

Been pretty much following along the whole game, missed a challenge or two though. Would always go back and see what I missed. I'm a sucker for "Survivor" type shows, I love watching human nature run its course.

Would have joined in, but the non-descript,nobody will remember him type person always gets voted off first. :)

[Poli]

No offense, Radii. :) But I did promise Kodos, and never promised you anything like that :)

[McSweeny]

this is helping me make it through the night at work... could use a little more humor though

[Poli]

It was really neat when I started counting up to 100...but I got lost somewhere around 43 I think.

[Poli]

I'm trying Mac, I'm trying!

[Kodos]

If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying." And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because of something you did."

[Poli]

That's awesome, now concede please! Some of us need some sleep before they venture out tomorrow...I mean today!

[Kodos]

Concede, and go to sleep knowing that I will take you to the Final with me. I swear on my love for Def Leppard and Dan Marino.

[Poli]

You love Marino? Gross!

[Kodos]

Careful, son. Insulting Marino is no way to treat an ally.

[Poli]

I'm just thinking of the relationship between man and alien...is it possible?!?!?

[Poli]

Don't answer that, PLEASE. Don't answer anything for 10 minutes, would you? You'll be in the finals, I guarantee it!

[Kodos]

It is not a physical, inter-species kind of love. Just the love of a devoted fan.

[stkelly52]

by the way, do you guys remeber the Geography challenge?

(http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~fof/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7929&highlight=map)
No one found it, but there was a secret circle in the pacific ocean that was worth three votes in any challenge. It is expired now, but I though everyone might like to know that it had been there.

[Kodos]

I am a very stubborn alien. Have I ever mentioned that?

[Kodos]

Pretty sneaky, St. K.!

[Poli]

Nope, you never mentioned it. Dang it Saint!

[Poli]

Kodos...you're negotiating is lacking!

[stkelly52]

Well if I mentioned it then it wouldn't have been worth so much

By the way, are you still at work Kodos?

[Kodos]

An insult!

[Kodos]

Yes. Yes I am.

[Poli]

Come on Kodos...lay dormant for 10 minutes. Concede. Then it's nothing more than an open proclamation of you and me in the finals.

[Poli]

Doh! Sorry, I didn't mean to insult! Just saying your negotiating...well...

[Poli]

I could go ahead and tell Stkelly now if you want that I'm taking you. Would that help?

[Poli]

Stkelly, if Kodos steps down, concedes, whatever, and I win, I am voting for Radii. That said, Kodos and I would be in the final.

[stkelly52]

I would still allow you to change your vote. No voting untill the challenge is over

[Kodos]

_____________http://www.indygear.com/props/images/williams6-sm.jpg _____________

Kodos takes the leap of faith. See you in the finals, ardent. Now go get some sleep. :)

P.S. - If you cross me, Radii gets my vote for sure! :D

[Poli]

That being said by Kodos, and assuming this challenge will be over in approximately 10 minutes, I will vote Radii out.

[McSweeny]

booooo! we need more drama! where's the backstabbing??

[stkelly52]

Assuming he doesn't come back, go ahead and cast your vote whenever the game is over

[Poli]

There will be no crossing. Guess I owe you dinner eh? Or perhaps we could make the winner buy the runner up dinner?

[Kodos]

"Only in the leap from the lion's head will he prove his worth..."

Congratulations, Ardent. Good job.

[Poli]

Thanks Kodos.

I assume I have now officially won immunity.

My vote is for Radii.

Kodos and myself are now the finalists.

[Kodos]

:)

Thanks, kid.

[Kodos]

Oh, and good luck in the Final. We made it.

[Radii]

Ok, knowing that this lasted until 8pm makes me feel ok about it. I had dinner plans at 6, and I would have pushed them back to 6:30 or 7 or so if I thought I could win but I wouldn't have been able to take it this far tonight :)

StKelly, there is some interesting stuff in this thread for sure, stuff that would have been in the "who do you think is in control of things" question of the day if anyone would have been dumb enough to answer honestly and target themselves ;)

Twas a ton of fun guys.

[Marmel]

I agree. It was a LOT of fun, even if we know who is going to win in the Final 2. :D

[Kodos]

It was really fun, I just wish the participation had been a little better (thus making it even more fun). It was fun to get a little taste of the paranoia that you see on the real Survivor.

You have done a great job coming up with challenges stkelly. Thanks for running the show. Good luck to ardent in the finals - if he wins, he deserves it. :) I've done all I can do now.

[Swaggs]

Wow. I can't believe you guys played for so long (coming from the master of the obvious, I know). :)

[stkelly52]

Originally I wanted to do this on a friday night and see if yall were willing to stay up all weekend, but when I saw that Ardent was available to play as well and all 3 could make it, I had to jump at the oppertunity. Challenges are much better everyone can be there.

The fianl episode is just moments away.

[Radii]

the sad thing is, if it was friday night, I think I probably could have played well into Saturday morning if necessary *grin*

[Poli]

1!

Shoot...I forgot...it's over...thank goodness! My buddies were wondering why I was dragging so much today!

[Poli]

Just a note for all concerned: I did finally get my package:

1 Xbox controller
5 bags of Sweettart candy rolls (think smarties, but in sweettart form)
1 bag of Easter Skittles
1 Jonah-A Veggietale Movie DVD with Classic Veggie Songs Sampler
1 tub of protein
1 bottle of creatine
1 set of pictures from home
1 bag of Jelly Bellies
1 NFL Draft Magazine (Sporting News)
1 bag of Easter Reese's Pieces

Grade B+

It took over a month, but was definitely worth it. She gets a B+ because of the Reese debacle. They melted, and clumped together. Not only that, but the oily goo got on a little bit of my draft magazine.

I love the Sweettarts and Jelly Bellies. I'm not sure if the spots on the Sweetarts are enough for me to be concerned. I'll continue to eat them until I get sick or something.

[Kodos]

Think of it as just another Survivor challenge to eat the spotty Sweettarts!

[Poli]

Funny you should say that...I'm eating some right now!
